Anonymous asked: What is the kontextmaschine take on Catalonia? Do you think we're going to see another Spanish civil war serving as a dry run for communism vs fascism round 2, or is that too obvious normie thinking?
I think Madrid will keep control with occasional unrest; no one has international patrons like in the Spanish Civil War
I think it’s the playing-out of EU consolidation and pacification - if Spain isn’t defending you from France, and it isn’t capturing Havana for your benefit, and it isn’t minting you a currency or protecting your industries with tariffs, then what’s the appeal of being Spanish?
